Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Yellow mustard seeds
- 2 tablespoons Ground mustard powder
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 1 cup Apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Water
- 0.25 teaspoons Turmeric powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Cayenne pepper (optional)
Instructions
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the yellow mustard seeds and ground mustard powder.
Pour in the apple cider vinegar and water, and mix well. Let the mixture sit for 2-3 hours or overnight to allow the mustard seeds to soften and the flavors to meld.
Transfer the soaked mixture to a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth or to your desired consistency. For a grainy texture, process less.
Pour the blended mixture into a small saucepan over medium-low heat.
Stir in the honey, brown sugar, salt, turmeric powder, and cayenne pepper (if using). Mix thoroughly.
Simmer the mixture for 7-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it slightly thickens. Be careful not to let it boil rapidly, as this may alter the flavor.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the mustard cool to room temperature.
Transfer the mustard to a sterilized jar or airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 24 hours before serving to allow the flavors to develop further.
Store in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 weeks.
